1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Active goal-directed motion requires real-time adjustment of control signals depending on the system's status, also known as control. The amount of information that needs to be processed depends on the desired motion and control, and on the system's morphology. The morphology of the system may directly effectuate or support the desired motion. This morphology-based reduction to the neuronal 'control effort' can be quantified by a novel information-entropy-based approach. Here, we apply this novel measure of 'control effort' to active microswimmers of different morphology. Their motion is a combination of directed deterministic and stochastic motion. In spherical microswimmers, the active propulsion leads to linear velocities. Active propulsion of asymmetric
